Things that made my day today:
1. The big sarcoma enclosed within the semimembranosus.
2. This standing stool. Period.
3. And I’m tall.

Things I’ve done so far, 3 weeks into my electives in the amazing state of Sarawak:
1. Seen 3 blind men, literally, “the blind leading the blind”, trying to cross the road, despite traffic approaching! And therefore, escorted them and saved some lives (?) hahaha~~
2. Missed my flight for the first time in my life.
3. Cycled on the busy roads of Malaysia, and survived! Bicycle 1, Malaysian traffic 0.
4. Punctured the tyres of our bicycles, and got stranded somewhere in the city…. Malaysian Road 1, Bicycle 0.
5. …Luckily, we managed to squeeze the whole bicycle into the back seat of a friend’s car, twice, and got home safely.
6. Super rapid two-lane bowling session!
7. Said Hi to bats, orang-utan, weird insects, crocodiles, macaques, and monkeys etc.
8. Ate Sago worms! Yum!
9. Being part of a 20-people entourage/team ward round.
10. Spoken the most Malay in my whole life.
11. Seen the largest spleen yet.
12. Walked a lot – up to 10km in some days!
13. Conquered the Mulu Pinnacles Trail – 2.4km nearly vertical upwards, 10 hours return!
14. Got stranded in the middle of the river in a boat.
15. Stayed in a traditional Longhouse, where there’s no fan at all, and lights & electricity are only available from 6pm to 9pm only.
16. Chicken-danced everywhere! – next to a big round about in the city centre, on top of the Pinnacles Climb etc.
And the adventure continues. =)
